Pardon these tears. William Is

Wednesday morning he was found
dead with the warehouse lowering

railroad employees, of whom Billy
was the pet, held an inquest aud
rendered the following verdict
ave find our William Goat dead
under the warehouse. We believe
he was coWardly assassinated, but
as lie is the same pet "baste" that
ate Ed's old coat, he may possibly
have died of Indigestion or cOncus-
sion of the brain. Ordered that he
DO removed and decenily Inferred"
His remains we're taken aboard

Rolls, conductor, aud transported

THE STAR LIVERY STABLES.

The Star Livery Stables OF Mr..
b. +. Pickett, is one of the land
marks OF Scranton, and it is a
noticeable fact they are now being
fitted up, cleaned, whnewasbeL and
otherwise put in order rs though
no financial depression had ever
been felt in our community.
Through all the financial vicissi.
tudes of the past seventeen years
the Star Livery Stables have never
varied in price, except in confOrmi.
ty with surrounding circumstances.
and these prices have always been
uniform without respect to persons.
Good horses, nice comfortable bug.
gies, neat and clean Offices, warmed
by stove in winter, prompt atten.
ton night aud day, characterize the
Star Livery Stables. Mr.. Pickett
has now, in connection with his
stables a nice glass enclosed hearse,
as nice as be had in any country
town, which he has fitted up so that
our people may enjoy the luxury of
a decent burial. With these retiec-
tons it must be e that this insti-
tuition is ii public benefit, aud de-
serves the support OF the citizens.
